Assessment of post-stroke BBB disruption via HARM on perfusion-weighted imaging. (A) Pre-contrast and (B) post-contrast FLAIR images from a patient presenting with HARM at 24 hour follow up. HARM was positively identified when the CSF space in the sulci or ventricles appeared hyperintense post-contrast. Level of HARM was systematically categorized as none, mild, moderate, or severe based on the number of serial slices exhibiting evidence of HARM.
